5. W.T. Farm?

What makes W.T. Farm special is the diversity of textures of the landscape. We have great mountain top views, as well as, a deep holler with cliffs, rock outcroppings, and waterfalls. The fields are full of fruit and nut trees and there are 5 ponds. Each of these supports its own flora and fauna. I acquired stewardship of this land 35 years ago and have developed perennial orchards wherever possible. I started with pears and have branched out into pawpaws, apples, persimmons, currants, black walnuts etc. and I boast that I planted the first commercial hickory oil orchard in the world. I am an eccentric horticulturalist and graft cultivar varieties onto existing trees like oaks, hickories, black walnuts, and even the maligned invasive honeysuckle, autumn olive and multiflora rose. Just last year I bought an adjoining farm that opened up 50 acres of more orchard planting. It is on top of the mountain and offers an expansive view of the valley and ridge system that defines our region. Funny thing is that because the land between the old farm and the new farm is divided by cliffs in the holler the only way to get from one to the other is a 12 minute drive or vigorous hiking. On this new land is a historic log cabin I am renovating that is said to be one of the original settler's cabin on the mountain. Because of the amount of tree fruit I grow and the varied landscape, there is a rich diversity of birds and animals to be seen. One of my favorite walks is along the cliffs to the top waterfall where there is a sweet wading pool. I have also built a number of ponds and four of them are quite swimmable. One has a dock and is where we spend much summer time refreshing and frolicking. The farm is also a small (very small) licensed farm winery and we make and sell traditional hard cider from our apples and pears. Our cider can be purchased along with our nut oils and flours and other farm produce you may not be familiar with. We live to eat. Coming here is a gastronomical adventure! I run the Acornucopia project from here and from it we are developing a foragers network that would very much suit the lifestyle of hipcampers. We pay foragers for wild nuts they gather. Also often there is an opportunity to work on the farm harvesting and processing food. Let me know if that is something you would like to do. Treely Yours, Bill

So calming and a good place to sleep! We were just spending the night but would be a great place to spend a weekend. Sweet cats greet you, also ducks and chickens. Fridge, microwave, and coffee pot available. Enclosed bathroom with shower and toilet inside. Great little diner down the road! Just be advised there is no signal there or the surrounding area. The wifi works well for the TV but not great for cellphones.

The cabin can comfortably fit more than four people and still has plenty of space to move around. Both the indoor and outdoor bathrooms were clean. It’s the best place to relax, unwind, and enjoy good company. Highly recommend!

Weekend Trip to CB Ranch Camp -Almost Heaven cabins

Beautiful land very private and quiet. Place was roomy and comfy and loved the bear theme. Could see all the stars at night. We saw deer in the morning frolicking in the fall colors. They had a nice set up prepared for a small bonfire and water jugs to extinguish before bed which was a nice touch. There was a propane heater and plenty of blankets. We took a walk to the pond and located some frogs. We never made it to the shower but the area has plenty to do. We went to a cidery, drive over an 1800# covered bridge, lost caves and bridge day. Will come back some day.

What a sweet little spot! The mattress was super comfy! We stayed in Papa’s and loved that there was a small fan as we love sleeping with white noise. Shower got hot and was just fine for fall traveling - I’m not sure how cold winters get, but weather was ideal so the open air bathroom was no issue. The community center was cute and convenient for us to fill water bottles for our trip! Super sweet lady that greeted us too! Would’ve absolutely stayed longer if we weren’t just passing through!

3 nights at Ray's Campground

If you’re wondering whether you should book or not, just do it! Ray’s was everything I needed and more for my three-night trip visiting NRG. I stayed in the Kentucky cabin which had 2 bunk beds, larger bed (full or queen?), nightstand w/ light, extension cord, standup heater fan, ceiling light/fan and trash can. There was a porch with a picnic table and two additional wooden chairs. There is also a fire pit. In the common room (quick walk from the cabin) there’s a living room with TV, sofa, board games and more. There's a kitchen with a fridge/freezer, stove, oven, sink. There’s a large covered area off this common room that has a grill, tables and chairs. Next to this area is a small open shed that has ice $2 and firewood $6 or $7 if I recall. On the opposite side of the campground (still a quick walk from the cabins) theirs is a large outdoor utility sink and cabinet, and a washer/dryer that is $2/ea under an awning. I didn’t use them so I’m not sure how you pay. There’s a separate men’s & women’s restroom/shower. I believe there were 3 showers and 3 toilets in the women’s room. The showers had hot water and the utility sink was super convenient for washing dishes. I have AT&T and had 2 bars everywhere I went around the campground. After each day of hiking from AM to PM, the Kentucky cabin was an absolute oasis. Especially after ending a long roadtrip of camping in the rain!

This is the 3 walled kitchen shed with electric, cold running water and a sink, outdoor shower, fridge, table and chairs, hot plate

I'm so glad we stayed here. This was such an incredible place it really feels like a hidden treasure. Incredible views EVERYWHERE. We came here specifically for the stars and milky way, which were amazing, but the fall colors really stole the show. This was the most wildflowers I've ever seen! Goldenrod in every direction. We were also completely alone here and there's plenty to explore. This is our new favorite place!

Just what we needed! The cabin was well stocked and tidy, and the owners were so friendly and helpful. The bathrooms were very clean and updated. Our group booked a tent site and a cabin. The kids swam in the pond all day! We kayaked and used paddle boards. The stream behind us was so peaceful and we even hung out and kept cool in it. The sites are well shaded so we weren’t too hot. There is a local general store within walking distance that has just about anything you forgot! We are hoping to come back next year.

Ray’s Campground has been by far the best camping experience I’ve ever had. The whole place was super clean, quiet, peaceful, and pet friendly exactly what I was hoping for. Everyone I met was so friendly and made the atmosphere feel really welcoming. The location couldn’t be better. It’s close to everything but still tucked away in a cozy, tucked-back spot that feels like a true escape. Whether you’re into exploring or just want to kick back and enjoy the outdoors, this place has you covered. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better spot. I’ll definitely be back and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great camping trip.

Ray's was great to me. I booked last minute and they accommodated my nighttime arrival. Staff was kind. I stayed in papa's place and my sheets just fit but not sure if they were queen or full, size up just in case! Didn't use bunk beds but love the option if I come back with friends or family. No fridge or microwave in room but great cabin and grounds.
